How to find the right room? TUT room marking system consists of the building number, floor and room number. For example, IRO U02-201 2nd building, II floor (in Estonia Ist floor is ground lever floor), room no 01. Extensions of buildings are marked with letter B after the building no. The numbering system changed this semester at TUT, therefore we are sorry if there are any misunderstandings.
